A few weeks ago, Jake was spotted holding hands with a mystery gal in the Big Apple.

Jake recently talked with LA Times about how things have changed now that he is in his 30s.

“At 30, there were a number of moments in my life that culminated or began — like my family being born in a new way, with two nieces that are now in my life. My parents got divorced right around that time,” Jake shared. “When you’re in your 20s there’s a certain sense of wanting to take responsibility for the way you behave, the way you look at the world and how you interact.”

FYI: Jake is wearing head-to-toe Ferragamo, including a custom suit.

15+ pictures inside of Jake Gyllenhaal being honored in New York City…

He won’t shave until the run of his Broadway play (“If There Is”) ends. Which is….. December 23rd!
He stated in all the interviews that, this time, the ever-growing facial hair is specifically for his character, a drifter who comes back after years on the streets. It suits the character, not the actor.
